“Sweet Dreams” Quilt
Today is my youngest grandchild’s third birthday. “Sweet Dreams” went into the mail to her and has been received.
The blocks are Tula Pink’s 100 Modern Quilt blocks, from her book of the same name. This quilt was a challenge made to Coastal Quilters (Maine). We did eight blocks a month until we were done. Many of us have completed the project and some are almost done. All of the quilts are gorgeous!
I used the “city scape” setting suggested by Tula Pink and put the lighter blocks on the top of the skyscrapers, per a suggestion by CQ President Sharon Flanagan.
And the blocks, grey sashing, backing, and binding are all Cotton+Steel fabrics.
I really love how my quilting came out.
Look at this fabulous backing fabric. Could it be more perfect? No.
Here are some of the blocks.
I love this quilt. I didn’t really expect to love it as much as I do. It’s one that caught me by surprise. I’m really pleased with it.
Love your quilts as usual. This one has such a variety of gorgeous colors and designs. It is amazing what happens when you stick to one designers fabric. I may have to pay more attention to the designers and make one also of one line. I love the city block layout. you GO girl with all your talents and abilities. You certainly met the challenge well.
